icalendar devel - Mar 2013 - Icalendar.Parse(StringIO.new(aString)) complains about missing method, bytesize

I need to send an ics file to a web service, so however it gets there it 
will arrive as a string. Is there another way to begin Icalendar''s
Parse
than with a file?

I''m currently sending the file using the curl command...

curl -v --data-urlencode ics at invite.ics http://127.0.0.1:4567/ics2event

I''ve tried curl''s --data-binary and sinatra''s
request.body.string to
create the stringio object, without luck.

Ultimately it complains
NoMethodError at /ics2event
undefined method `bytesize'' for #<Icalendar::Calendar:0x9c8b1b8>
file: component.rb location: method_missing line: 419

My web code is below.

require ''sinatra''
require ''rubygems''
require ''icalendar''

get ''/'' do
   "Hello, world!"
end

get ''/test'' do
     "You''ve found me!"
end

post ''/ics2event'' do
     #puts request.body.string

     invite = StringIO.new(params["ics"])

     cals = Icalendar.parse(invite)

     for each in cals do
         for eachEvent in each.events do
             puts eachEvent.summary
             puts eachEvent.description
             puts eachEvent.location
             puts eachEvent.status
             puts eachEvent.dtstart
             puts eachEvent.dtend
             puts eachEvent.organizer
             for eachAttendee in eachEvent.attendees do
                 puts eachAttendee.to
             end
         end
     end
end

Can you share what the ical file that you are parsing looks like as well?
